[Closed] Marmite bikes.......................love em..............;o)

Where to start.... 🙂

............and a spoiler 😉

Fact 1: You are the 1st person we have got 29" tyres for.

if it makes you happy.

but why the silly small gearing on the front? must spin out really easily.

a lot use a 32 ring up front jam bo - maybe you are just a riding [s]dog[/s] god and uber rad?

maybe i am. i tried 22-32-bash and found it really frustrating. 22-36 shifts just fine and is a whole lot more versatile.

for you yes for ton obviously not as he has more money than sense and if it was the case would have bought it.

Haw far away from the bike where you planning on putting your front caliper ?

looks like a longer bike that's been pushed together.

apart form the big mincey mud guards, I like it 😀

Big bikes with 26" wheels look like gates. That looks nicely in proportion.

FWIW, I like it.

Didn't even realise it was a big wheeler at first - that must be mahoosive!

Looks good to me 🙂

I ride a Patriot (an old one) so can't really comment. BUT, if my Patriot and your bike went out clubbing - mine would be the looker.....

But, it ain't about looks, it's about how it rides (same with fat girls really).

but later in the bedroom, big and black is always a winner.............or so i have been told by ladies in the past.

Another vote for big bikes look better with 29' wheels, looks pretty good to me (well apart from the rear mudguard).

It looks very busy

BTW,nearly spat my coffee out laughing at Lowey's comment 😀

Looks like the front of a Cannondale Gemini or an old Marin suus and a rear triangle and rocker arms off a Kona.

Does not look like a circus bike though like it would if it was 26 wheels

lol
Think it needs some 29"s 😀

More OXO than marmite, looking from left to right.

IGMC, etc...........

Edit:
Says OXO from right to left as well!

metaphorically speaking then - that would be "Ton's Oxo tower"?

yeuch.

I didn't even notice it was a 29er! That's a good thing I guess...

u do whinlatter on that?

I really like the look of the dropped big-ring w/o bashguard.

Trieed it myself but the chain-ring bolts were too long 😕

Aaaaaagh! The valves! The VALVES...!!
